When the real estate agent first showed this
cottage to it's new owners, it was painted egg-yolk yellow with circus-blue trim. Their
vision was to make this cottage reminiscent of the pastel-coloured Florida
beach cottages of the 1940s. They started with the home’s exterior - a
mint-green paint job, white trim, and a white picket fence. This fresh, breezy colour scheme set the tone for the rest of the house. A mix of vintage and thrift store finds painted and dressed in ice-cream shades creates a bright, fun holiday weekender!

The interior designer of this home is Jane Coslick in USA. The owner is Mary Kay Andrews, an American author. Jane Coslick has her own website and you may be able to find the paint color names on her website. If you like this house, she renovates all manner of beach bungalows in the same general, colorful style, so feel free to check her out! You will get loads of beachy inspiration if you search Pinterest for her name as well.
